[feature request] Make publication-ready charts with beakerx #7731

Open altavir opened 6 years ago

I think that beakerx is mature enough to start using it in scientific "production". I mean, we can really use it to produce pictures, which could be used in publications. For now it lacks customization for that. I will try to outline some points which are in my opinion are needed to achieve the goal:

I will try to update the list as I go.

Probably related to #6572.

Not sure about that, There is no need to reproduce the whole set of Plotly api (which is huge and confusing) just to get publication ready plots. Just a few tweaks. I think that ability to apply style (raw json) which would affect underlying d3 bypassing API is enough to achieve everything.

@altavir Tweaks to the current API are certainly reasonable. If an entirely new API is going to be put in place, it makes sense to consider how well the candidates support the goal of generating publication-ready charts.
